On this week’s episode of Property Buzz, Phil Tarrant and Liam Garman unpack the inaugural Australian Buyers Agent Awards, a landmark event that brought together nearly 500 of the nation’s top buyer’s agents and set a new benchmark for credibility, structure, and accountability.

The hosts also dig into the growing consolidation wave, with smaller agencies struggling to survive and many now being absorbed into larger, corporatised networks, shifting the sector nationwide.

And finally, the big question: should buyer’s agents be required to have real property investment experience before advising clients? In an increasingly complex market, credibility may no longer be optional – it could be the difference between trust and risk.
